摘要(Abstract):
当前,行政负担的相关议题在学术界引起了广泛关注。本文旨在探讨在公共服务数字化转型的背景下,为什么数字技术反而加重了公民的行政负担,以及这些负担的影响因素与生成机制。通过对相关文献的系统梳理与深入分析,研究发现,公民的能力与行为差异、政府的政治决策与街头官僚的执行方式,以及技术供给能力与运作逻辑等因素,均对行政负担产生重要影响。具体而言,数字技术加重公民行政负担的生成机制主要通过以下四条路径实现:一是技术应用的直接作用,二是技术通过影响政府行为的间接作用,三是技术通过影响公民感知的间接作用,四是技术对公民获取服务过程中政民互动关系的间接影响。未来的研究应采用更加多元的方法,拓展在不同场景与领域的探讨,以形成更加系统和深入的研究成果。
